Chengdu Yuanheyuan Buddha Zen Hotel

I checked in at around 7pm, the lights were dimmed, and the antique wooden fence seemed to be the former site of a wealthy family. Some areas are still under renovation, which can make people feel a little intimidated. It was originally planned to be three nights. Now that we have arrived, we will settle down and wait until tomorrow to make further arrangements. When I first met Mr. Shi Kuizhi, an employee whose title I didn’t know, he was humble, polite and kind-hearted. Although the wooden door has an electronic lock, to ensure peace of mind, a wooden chair is used as a screen so that one can sleep. When I wake up, my mind is refreshed and the impression I had at the beginning is no longer the same. Bring your own small living room to sit around the table and make tea, which is a pleasure. The walls of the corridor are decorated with Shu embroidery and thangka. The cabinets are filled with colorful porcelain and solemn Buddha statues. The bedding and mattress are comfortable, and indoor slippers are unusually thick. The breakfast is basically delicious and not enough. But for strict vegetarians, there is no place to eat. It not only appeals to Buddhist Zen culture. There may be room for improvement. The counter in the lobby is too high and should be lowered to facilitate reception and greeting of guests.

It used to be a high-end hotel, now it needs a renovation especially in the bathrooms, furniture and windows. Despite a slight air of decadence it is a pleasant hotel, with immaculate sheets and bathrobes. Nice breakfast room, good food. Check-in a bit slow. Nice neighborhood where it is located.
